Chris Stewart

Thank you for your courage. Thank you for your honesty. Honestly, I apologize for some of the behavior and the words of my colleagues.

I think my description to you is sufficient that you could make a judgment of that.

I'm shocked that they don't want to condemn it.

We do need more gathers. I think we need more contraception for the gathered horses.

There is a difference just being heard and then feel like, well, they heard me, but then they ignored everything I said.

I wish I had been here because apparently there was an unprovoked attack on my beautiful State by the Chairman.

there is probably nothing that is more divisive and more contentious than is this rule in the West with farmers and ranchers.

I would ask for your commitment that you will include the State and the local communities who have a stake in this.

I thank Mr. Owens, my friend, for organizing this event and for his interest in something that I think every American shares. I have a young family. I have six kids. Many of them are just young couples. They are starting their careers…

What an honor it is to be here with my friends, people that I have tremendous respect for, colleagues, people who love their country and want to serve their country. Several of them have said something that I think is worth emphasizing…

I hereby remove myself as a cosponsor from H.R. 1297. The SPEAKER pro tempore (Ms. Manning). The gentleman's request is accepted. ____________________
